I appreciate that the good or somewhat interesting design choices were highlighted and discussed along with the bad.

      Interesting that ghosts of tsunami is a game set in Japan done by a American study iirc.
      There's this interesting video essay + reply essey why Asian/Japanese websites tend to contain a lot of information presented densly vs American ones tend to be more minimal/less cluttered. The TH-camr in the reply video showed studies around brain function, Asian tend to process information in a way that they can handle all that information better. (Original video was answers in progress, I forget who made the reply video).
      So, I wonder if ghosts of tsunami would have such a minimal layout if it'd been developed in Japan, if this design differences/information handling different can been seen in game uis, and if SS UI team and testers makeup tender more towards those that prefer the 'cluttered' design.
      I much prefer the minimal design, but that's how my brain handles it. Being able to configure UI settings is great to allow people to choose what's best for them.

      But there’s also games like Elden ring with very minimal hud made by eastern studios. I really don’t think it’s east vs west here, there’s examples and exceptions from both sides. It certainly doesn’t have to do with eastern people processing info better/faster, or you could say that it’s actually because western people comprehend and retain info better, so there is no need for additional UI or HUD.

      ​@hefoxed I don't have a hard time processing all the information, I just think it looks ridiculous.
      A nice clean look with a cinematic feel just feels far more immersive and enjoyable to me. I've never been able to get into most of the Asian style games like final fantasy, the weird over the top action with swords longer than bodies being wielded by a scrawny kid just always put me out.
      I did enjoy final fantasy 15? I think it was. But it still just annoyed me how scrawny noctis was. But by the end when he was older I loved it, especially when the world was thrust into the dark.
      Anyways went off point. I think it comes down to preference on what you like on the screen, overly congested ui, damage numbers and crazy flashes every where, just does not appeal to me.
      I usually turn all ui elements off cause I want to feel as immersed as possible.

    What gets me with the lack of enemy variety is that the premise fundamentally revolves around Brainiac mind-controlling people, so there are so many ways they could've used that to have a few different enemy types/factions: Brainiac'd Intergang, Brainiac'd MPD, maybe even Brainiac'd Atlanteans or Amazons since he seems to be a world-ending threat that likely would've pulled in forces from outside of Metropolis, etc.

      King Shark could have a weaker/no shield in exchange for having a larger health bar and regeneration. You can pull enemies towards you or you to enemies using the hook, and melee attacks can regain health. Encourage a brawling, get-in-the-thick-of-it style.
      Deadshot would be more about precision. You get rapid-fire from the hip, while aiming with iron sights slows your rate of fire in exchange for more critical damage on weak points. You also have a shrinking reticle that the smaller it gets, the more powerful the shot. One skill could be auto-hit no matter how off your aim is, while another is a charged heavy-damage shot.
      Captain Boomerang can use an infinite supply of boomerangs to hit multiple targets, or the same target several times, at the cost of reduced individual damage. His boomerang skills could be all about elemental effects with a guaranteed chance to trigger, or a multi-strike that stuns an enemy for the duration of the attack.
      And Harley Quinn will be the mixed class. She can do melee damage with her hammer or bat, but not as much as Shark. She can use precision shots, but won’t do as much damage as Deadshot. And she has traps and explosives with elemental effects, but they need to used at a closer range.
      And that’s how I’d do them to retain a unique identity.

      @@runbaaPl4y Much harder to compare a fighting games live service model though because yeah it's true they add content and make changes throughout the lifecycle of the game, but the patches they make are usually adjust characters and add content to an already amazing game. Tekken is a great example cause Tekken 8 has a crazy amount of content already from the characters and depth of each one, game modes, customization etc. And manages to deliver this as a full experience with no microtransactions or seasonal updates.
      A live service game like suicide squad and that horrid avengers game deliver you a half assed project and then throw microtransactions and seasonal updates in your face at the promise of more half assed content over time to keep you paying for and playing the same garbage over and over again.
      The fact that suicide squad is this mediocre - giving it the benefit of the doubt - at launch and we have to wait to see if it will eventually be worth anything is disgusting. Especially coming from the creators of the Arkham franchise.

      @@R3alHooman a more apt comparison would probably be Hitman 2016. On release, Hitman 2016 was okay overall. Now, as part of the new trilogy package, Hitman World of Assassination is regarded as among the best Hitman content in the franchise. Doesn't change the fact that Hitman 2016 was okay at best back then, but with the hindsight that it's part of a larger trilogy, it does recontextualizes the game. The on-release review 'n done models work horribly for games designed to be continually updated gradually.
      I wi give the SS game one thing it has over the Avengers game, tho. It has a better gameplay foundation than Avengers. It's functional, it's fun, and it's fast. What the SS game lacks is good level and enemy design for the purpose of the gameplay loop.

Game mechanics that meet somewhere between Arkham Knight and Suicide Squad, in the form of a next-gen game set in that neo-noir/cyberpunk city has a lot of potential. It would also be neat to play as one character rather than four, with access to the best of the Suicide Squad’s collective moveset. Even if they didn’t innovate any of these mechanics or graphics and instead focused solely on world design and especially the writing, I’d be very excited to see it happen.

    1. Why are Gotham villains in Metropolis?
    2. Isn't the whole point of Green Lantern's ring that it requires willpower to work, right? So how is Stewart still having it after being possessed?
    3. Why are there Riddler trophies? Wasn't the whole point of them that Riddler wants to prove his intellectual superiority over Batman? Whom is he showing it over here, King Shark?
    4. What on earth was Batman doing with the Justice League? His identity already got revealed and he did the Knightfall protocol in the end of Arkham Knight. Why is he still running around in his costume?
    5. Didn't Deadshot retire after the Knightfall protocol? More importantly, how did he change his race?
    6. If Batman was in contact with the Justice League the whole time, why didn't he take their help in the Arkham games? Like, just call Superman to swoop in and clap Bane every single time.

      Every one of these is answered in the game, except maybe #3 being more of a point of carrying something over from the Arkham games. There is a section early on when you explore the Hall of Justice as the Squad and it will fill in what happened between Arkham Knight and this game, that section answers most of your questions. The bit about Deadshot is a running joke through the game, but it fits the story fine, keep in mind with comic book characters there are usually several people who take over the same mantle, for instance Green Lantern wasn't race swapped, it's just not Hal Jordan as is the typical standard. I don't think there is a direct answer for #2 in game, but there is nothing to suggest being brainwashed by Brainiac would nullify a power ring in the first place, they still have willpower, it's just bent toward Brainiac's cause; in fact, I would argue it makes his willpower stronger if anything since he is intent on nothing else except the objectives given to him by Brainiac.

    So here is my input. First I agree with a lot of his points. The bones for a good looter shooter is there. They will need to adjust there enemy type. There does need to be additional variation of enemies. The missions do need a little tuning. I hate to compare but similar to destiny strikes and division. There fun its just need tighter focus. The price at 70.00 maybe the high end for expectations. That 50.00 maybe the sweet spot. All the dps numbers and modifiers are pure dopamine. If they can continue to learn and implement some of these changes they may be on to something. There are so many characters they can add and storylines they can build and play with. I recommend to buy it once hit goes on sale.

      The problem I think is executives see games as service as this hands over fist money-making entity with crazy long longevity, but they fail to realize that only a handful of games as service IPs are going to make it say 2 years. Gamers can't dedicate their full attention to every GaS that comes out, so these games end up cannibalizing each other.

      @@Diree I agree with you, but UI and UX are different things. User Interface vs User Experience. The latter encompasses the entire game experience, the former what you all were talking about (information and interface elements).
      That's actually why I found the Elden Ring controversy with UX very puzzling. Everyone was talking about the game's UI when the original comments from the developers were talking about UX. They were basically making a joke that all they were taught about user experience (make it pleasant) was turned on its head. Soulsborne games are hard as fuck and intentionally unpleasant user experiences that, despite what convention might say, people love (including myself).

      @@MyUsualComment I know they're different things, but they're closely related. UI is part of UX, because whatever this is it's certainly not a good system to convey information easily. Usually these two sectors (have to) work hand in hand. The interface is just the optical representation in the end. How you're conveying that information via the interface is part of the user experience. Although I do find that term heavily overused.
      Anyway, semantics ... I totally agree with you on ER, the UI is minimal and the information is often not conveyed in a clear manner. Not even mentioning the "odd" quest design or general gameplay flow, but that's another matter entirely.
      I generally find it harder to talk about user experience design in games, because as in the example of ER, the obscurity is part of the "charm" and intentionally designed NOT to be very user friendly, unlike say in a document or graphics program where you want maximum accessibility.

    What a lot of these games tend to lack is a decent base game “endgames” Avengers had the same issue, the endgame was literally just redoing harder versions of the story, if you want players to stick around for content updates, they need to be at best engaged, or at worst, have a really good carrot dangled in front of them.
    If this had an engaging endgame, I’d say it would be decent if not average, cause I will admit, I enjoyed playing through the story, but I just know for a fact that once I am done with said story, I will drop it and only pick it up for new content.
